Is that under Windows 10 32 bit?

GCC does not work in all recent builds of Win 10 32 bit.

This will be (stack trace above) how any attempt to execute DJGPP program from another one will end 
in this case. It down not matter whether its executed directly or through some other non DJGPP 
program or bat file. I do not know whether it is intentional or got broken accidentally. It is 
perhaps extremely unlikely that it could be ever fixed.
